How to Overcome Adversities When Traveling



We are often asked how we handle adversities when we are traveling. Our best answer is, to be prepared. Yes be prepared for anything! Stay on top of maintenance. Know your vehicle and your rig. Don't let adversities get you down. Remember, it is not much different then living in a brick or stick home. When repairs are needed, you either fix it or hire someone to fix it. So just be prepared that things can go wrong on the road and repairs will eventually need to be made. And that is the same for any lifestyle choice. Stuff happens!

Pop-Up Campers VS Travel Trailers

Image
We are often asked if we will upgrade to a travel trailer. Or why we choose a pop-up camper for our adventure. The answer for us is pretty simplistic, to get closer to nature. The pop-up camper gives you much the same experience as tent camping would. It is however more convenient, most have a small kitchen sink, stove and refrigerator. They have a dinning area and your not sleeping on the ground. Travel trailers on the other hand are like tiny houses on wheels. I believe for us it would be to comfortable. I believe we would spend too much time in the comfort of a travel trailer and less time exploring nature. Not to say that as we age more we wouldn't get something more comfortable. I am going to say that at this time in our life the pop-up is the perfect choice for our adventure. It gives us all the comforts we need. We can fit her in tiny spots that would be difficult to fit a trailer. She is easy to tow, we can see all around her when on the road. Most of all she is home!

Help Becky

My daughter, Becky, has stage 3B-4A Squamous Cell Cervical Cancer. Becky just finished her third week of treatments and still has at least four week to go. Becky has been sick since early spring, she has been to the doctor several times with severe pain and heavy bleeding. At one point they removed three large blood clots and sent her home. Most often they just gave her medication to make her bleed more. Sept. 14, 2017 Becky once again found herself in the emergency room. This time the pain and bleeding was much worse. The doctor decided to do exploratory surgery to find out why she was hemorrhaging. They found a large tumor. They preformed a radical hysterectomy. She was told they were confident it was cancer. About a week later it was confirmed. Becky has since then had several bladder infections. Her bladder has dropped and is causing incontinence. Once she is done with treatments this will have to be taken care. Becky has treatments five days a week, Monday-Friday radiation.
